MATCH SUMMARY Connacht: (12) 33: Tries: Rigney, Warwick, Slemen Cons: Warwick 2, Slemen Pens: Warwick 4 Llanelli: (16): 19 Tries: Daniels, King Pens: Hercus 2, Bowen Att: 2,000

The Irish province trailed 16-12 at the break with Darren Daniel and Regan King crossing and Mike Hercus landing two penalties for the Scarlets.

However, Colm Rigney and David Slemen crossed and Paul Warwick added a try on top of his four first-half penalties.

The Scarlets' only reply in the second half was a Gareth Bowen penalty.

Connacht began well in sunny conditions, grabbing the lion's share of possession.

Warwick, making his first start in four league games, stroked over two penalties to erase Mike Hercus' fourth-minute opener.

The Llanelli side went back in front when Wales Under-19 international Daniel broke from his own 10-metre line to romp in at the left corner for his first league try.

Connacht gave a second-half performance that simply stunned us Scarlets director of rugby Gareth Jenkins

Warwick then mopped up after Daniel was sin-binned but a third Hercus penalty and King's try, scored in the right corner on half-time.

However, the hosts hit back within 70 seconds of the restart when scrum-half Chris Keane mounted a blind-side attack and off-loaded for flanker Rigney to touch down.

Warwick converted and added the extras to his own 52nd-minute try, created again by a Keane break.

Although Bowen, on as a half-time replacement for Hercus, reduced the deficit to 26-19 with a 30-metre penalty, Connacht claimed their third try on the hour through Slemen.
